Abstract The dry–jet–wet spinning process was employed to spin poly(lactic acid)(PLA) fiber by the phase inversion technique using chloroform and methanol as solvent and nonsolvent, respectively, for PLA. The as spun fiber was subjected to two‐stage hot drawing to study the effect of various process parameters, such a…

As a simple model for a Pickering emulsion droplet, we consider the adsorption of spherical particles to a spherical liquid-liquid interface in order to investigate the curvature effect on the particle adsorption. By taking into account both the surface and the volume energies due to the presence of a particle, we sho…

This paper provides a complete physical picture of optical response time as a function of cell gap (d) in a wide voltage regime. Normally both rise and decay times are known to be proportional to d 2 in the small angle approximation (), and in the high voltage regime where V π < V < V i the optical decay time is indep…

Abstract Elastomeric materials are used as barriers to protect workers against exposure to chemicals. The effectiveness of a polymer as a chemical protective material depends on the rate of permeation of chemicals through it. The permeation rate is dependent on the type and amount of fillers added into the polymer mat…
